Who We Are...

Founded in 2016, the Bedford Arts Cooperative (BAC) is a 501c3 organization located in historic downtown Bedford, Pennsylvania. 

At the BAC, you can visit the Imagine Art Gallery and enjoy a revolving calendar of art shows, featuring the work of talented local and visiting artists and offering a variety of juried and non-juried exhibitions year round.

We are proud to be home to our partners at Off Pitt Street Theater Company which provides a packed calendar of dramatic productions from live, old-time radio shows and holiday shows for the whole family to adult-themed events like original murder mysteries, Shakespeare productions, and slapstick comedies.  Through partnership, the BAC helps fund the professional work of the OPS KIDS Advanced Fine Arts Program which instructs young people in all aspects of professional theatrical production from lighting and stage craft to playwriting and acting technique.

Also at the BAC, we regularly host talented musicians and bands from the tri-state area and offer BYOB entertainment in a variety of musical genres from Bluegrass to Broadway Show Tunes.  All performing artists at the BAC represent the best talent the industry has to offer in an intimate atmosphere with excellent acoustics and comfortable seating.

Each year, we host many events in partnership with Downtown Bedford Inc. from the Wine and Spirits Walk and Chocolate Walk, to Paint and Sip Parties and Ladies' Night Out, the BAC is always a favorite stop for visiting guests.

Our venue is very versatile which allows us to tailor events for private parties and organizations as well.  If you're looking to host a truly unique experience, talk to us about the many ways we can make your party, workshop, or class extra special!
